You heard that the customer is always right, right? True, but the decisive word in this sentence is not "good." It's "customers." People who are on the books with us today, outsourcing benefits, they are the ones that are correct. Prospects are not mere customers.
Twice during my career have been a high-level office to discuss a consulting project to come and I was pleased with this question:
"Then why are we here?"
In the first case, I was shown theBring to a few sentences.
In the second, I got a little 'longer. The whole meeting was to complete a total of twelve minutes.
Both men seemed highly skilled and motivated during our initial discussions, but for the moment we met, his passion cooled considerably. In a word, they were freaks. If you sell for a living, or as part of the activities on its activities, to take your actions. I guarantee it.
The "Why are we here?" Twins racesHot-and-sale. They were distracted, impulsive, excessive caffeine at most. But are not the only kinds of freaky chance to meet you.

(5) "Gee, that a good neighbor, but I do not respond to sales techniques." I do not. Lowball them, and they will respond. This is what we expect. Have you ever wondered why people erect signs saying "No Solicitors"? He buys everything, can not help themselves. Why else would they need a sign?
(6): "This is an exploratory meeting." They shot the chain. LetHonky-Tonk with someone else.
(7) "We already have a supplier, but we are looking for a second source." Translation: we want everything about them. We would simply like you to help us, bring down the price and terms.
There are probably more freaks in your base for exploration on PT Barnum promoted throughout his career.
